Key job responsibilities

You will have opportunities to develop software on the latest platforms and drive the roadmap for the next generation of compute instances. You will have an immediate impact on millions of customers, driving down latencies and improving the AWS customer experience. You will be surrounded by world-class technical talent, who are incredibly passionate about AWS and our product. You will gain top-notch experience in cloud computing.

A day in the life

As an SDE II, you will be involved in all parts of a software developer lifecycle - including software & system designing, coding, troubleshooting, testing, doing code reviews, testing, deployment and service maintenance. You will play an active role in all team meetings & discussion, leading project initiatives, influencing team's long term vision & strategies, partnering up with senior engineers and Stats customers.

Be a part of the team whose mission is to enable our customers to quickly and effectively generate both strategic and operational cross-cutting insights from fleet telemetry in self-service manner, and to deliver performance and health insights directly to EBS customers. We do this by owning and operating high throughput and distributed systems ingesting and processing petabyte of data in real-time with sub-minute latency to allow the EBS and broader AWS teams to ingest, transform, publish, query and visualize petabyte scale fleet telemetry data, and feed their data into standard monitoring tools.

On-Call Responsibility

This position involves on-call responsibilities, typically for one week every three months. We don’t like getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant. When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause so that we don’t get paged for the same issue twice.

We’re looking for a new teammate who is enthusiastic, empathetic, curious, motivated, reliable, and able to work effectively with a diverse team of peers; someone who will help us amplify the positive & inclusive team culture we’ve been building.
